I am asking all parish clerks, to please print out the attached ragwort poster, and put it up on your village notice board, so that everybody gets a chance to see what this poisonous weed looks like in its various stages.
Click HERE for the poster (PDF)

Obviously when you read the poster you will see that I am hoping that  you can report back details to myself of where ragwort is growing and not being dealt with in your area.  Please email any detail to me on ragwort@oxfordshire.gov.uk

Also below is a list of web sites that give more information on Ragwort:

www.defra.gov.uk
www.newforestnpa.gov.uk
www.surreycc.gov.uk
www.rhs.org.uk
www.thedonkeysanctury.org.uk
www.nfuonline,com
www.bhs.org.uk
And put in a search for ragwort

Your help with stopping the spread of Ragwort is much appreciated.

Yours sincerely
